Description

Traditional draw-wells and reed huts, cattle herds, families of geese, blossoming orchids in spring, and extensive salt efflorescences in summer are popular photo motifs.

From an ornithological point of view, the Illmitzer Zicksee (also known as the "Zicklacke") is certainly a “must-see”. At high water levels, a number of places offer good opportunities to observe birds at very close range. During the course of the year, about 15 duck species and 30 wader species use the lake or its shore zone as a resting area, and Canard chipeau, Canard souchet, and Canard colvert breed here. In May and July/ August, this saline lake is the most reliable spot in the area to see Bécasseau falcinelle , Bécasseau de Temminck , and Bécasseau minute. It is also a good place to see: Bergeronnette printanière , Phragmite des joncs , Locustelle luscinioïde , Pie-grièche écorcheur , and Bruant des roseaux. Singing pearches for Cochevis huppé and Fauvette épervière are almost “common knowledge”.
